Open the cabinet door to the left of fridge and loosen the screws holding the door to the hinge bars.
Slide the door off the hinges and set it aside.
3.
Remove the shelves from the cabinet and the rear, vertical shelf bracket strips, marking them with

cautiously
remove the hose from the barbed fitting on the bottom of the sink faucet. If
the faucet is made of plastic, be very gentle, twisting the hose loose from the barbs. Drain the hose
into a bucket and push the hose aside.

Remove the screws from the larger, upper, rear panel and pull the left side out first. Set the panel
aside. Now you should be able to see the fridge’s vent attachments to the outer wall of the van.

The lower vent has only one hose. Note
its position on the vent housing to
return it to the same position when
finished.
